Wattle, Wattle, Wattle
Is it just me, or is anyone else getting a wattle where their 2nd chin was? I am also noticing a few more lines on my face as the weight drops off. As of today I have lost 30 lbs. I am happy with the weight loss, but if my face and neck continue to quickly age with every pound lost, I'm gonna be thinking about botox. Any suggestions?
Dear Clare,
Hate to break the bad news, but botox is for muscles not skin.... It stops you from crinkling your eyes, ridging your forehead or indenting your cheeks. I've read that after WLS a patient can retain over 30 lbs of excess skin (gross).... Everyone I talk to says to be patient until you've stabilized at your desired weight... then look into plastic surgeons...

I do not know if you have heard of Arbonne but I have been using their products since 2 weeks out because I was so afraid of the wrinkles once the fat was not filling them in!!!
My skin and wrinkles look BETTER now than before surgery and I am quickly approaching 40lbs gone.
Shoot me an email if you are interested.
